Variables and Patterns: Determining an appropriate scale while graphing
Sixth graders determine appropriate scales when graphing data. In this graphing lesson, 6th graders use an the applet "Graph It" to determine what is an appropriate scale for their data.
Curated OER
Spaghetti Bridges
Students thread a piece of spaghetti through the holes in the cup. One person suspend the cup by placing each index finger approximately one inch in from the ends of the spaghetti.
Curated OER
Reflection
Students examine how some transformations, such as reflections and rotations, do not change the figure itself, only its position or orientation.
Curated OER
Introduction to functions
In this functions worksheet, students plot points on a graph according to the rule. Students plot 7 points on each of the 2 graphs given to them.
Curated OER
Interpreting Graphs
Learners investigate graphs. In this graphing lesson, students create a graph regarding the population of California. Learners extrapolate answers concerning the data set.
Curated OER
Graph Functions: Practice
In this graph functions learning exercise, students complete several activities to help them graph functions. Students use the table and the graph to complete the questions. Students also answer two test prep questions.
Curated OER
Students Analyze Data With Scatter Plots
Scatter plot lessons can help students create different types of graphs by hand or with the aid of technology.
